The problem I'm going to show here, while dealing with the Canvas, is really more of a general problem I have encountered with J2ME and portability issues.

When developing graphic apps it seems...

How do I locate and view the recordstore file in something like Notepad? I'm having a bug, and this would really help. I'm using the Nokia 3510i emulator, but I can not locate the rms file to save...

Is there a way I can check the date that my application was installed on a users phone? I'm thinking for demo expiration purposes here. Thanks!

doctordwarf,
Now why was I afraid you were going to say that about the phone number? It is shitty that for legit applications we can't get the phone number, this could really help with...

Ok, I have two questions here this time :)

How can I get the number of the phone the application is installed on? I'm wanting to get this for application security (preventing piracy).

Also, is...

Clive,

Your site looks nice. I linked to this forum primarily because it is the most popular forum for Nokia development currently. My plan in the short term is that I will link to popular...

Well I thought I'd bump this since I have really changed the layout of my site a ton in the last couple of weeks due to a lot of feedback as to what the site should be like.

Please take a minute...

I am translating a J2ME application from English to Chinese. However I am unsure how to get Chinese text into the app, can anyone help here? Thanks.

What is the maximum size image you can use for the icon on the 3650 when using J2ME?

Thanks. The honeymoon went great. Now I'm back home and ready to get back to work on content for the site. I'm looking for more content guys and gals! Please email me at webmaster@celldev.com or...

doctordwarf,

Thanks for your questions. I should have been more specific with my earlier post.

DoctorDwarf,

Your concern is valid, however I am a professional developer with several published titles under my belt. I just bought the domain about a week ago and am working on it in my...

Hello everyone! In the tradition of so many great websites (gbadev, flipcode, gamedev, etc...) I thought it was about time to have a website dedicated to developing on cell phones that was created...

How about using Symbian? Can you vibrate the phone in Symbian apps?

I know that the 3650 has vibration, but I can't get it to vibrate from Java. With the series 40 phones you could vibrate the phone like this DeviceControl.startVibra(100, 200);

Is it still...

I'm also having problems with the Nokia 3650 playing Smart messaging ringingtone format. Right in the Nokia docs it says all phones must support that as a MINIMUM. So what is going on here? The...

This is really stupid since the 3650 was just released here in the states. All they are going to do is start pissing off consumers by pulling this kind of crap. Notice how I am pissed? See Nokia,...

Thanks for that info. I have been adding that to the .jad file, but it was not working. I did not realize it would only work when downloaded via OTA. That is probably what is happening since I...

CareTaker,

Did this work for you on the 3650 though? It only works for me on the Series 40 phones.

chris,
I also read that document and could not get my J2ME games to install to the Games directory using that technique.

are you trying to directly run the midp.exe file? If so that will not work correctly. Instead use the Nokia_Developers_Suite_for_J2ME and use run emulators from there. However this is one crappy...

Everytime I put a Java MIDP game on the phone it installs to the Applications directory. How do I get it to install to the Games directory instead?

I am trying to play sounds in my application from .ott files.

However I am having errors with the sound initialization.

I create my sounds like this
